GDT: Trade Deadline week around the league

[Blueline Bomber]

Wait is Futa not here anymore? Wasn't that long ago the FO hired him. Or am I reading this wrong?

He apparently threw a hissy fit when we didn't acquire Giordano and left the organization to work for Sportsnet.

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Yes…. Assuming we want to expose him to waivers and potentially lose him…. His salary and that of most of our lower priced guys is below the threshold of minor league level not subject to being on the cap…. Stepan, Noesen, deHaan, Chatfield, and others all in same situation…. Not that we as an org would ever do that to some of our veteran guys who took min deals to latch on with us….

Sure, but the context was that we'd need to send his contract back as part of a deal to free up cap space to make the deal, so in that scenario, we wouldn't care about losing him. Probably doesn't matter either way, since his contract is up after this year so a team taking him back wouldn't be taking on much salary if they didn't want to keep him.

 

[Stickpucker]

Please TD don't disappoint us after the "aggressive talk" we feel so teased.

 

[HisIceness]

A trade will be announced 5 minutes after your takeoff.

I'm flying Spirit too so no free wifi

Geez, glad he rejected the GM offer 5 years ago.

So much in the rumor mill about Lindholm/Tuffoli, etc ... but what are we rumored to be sending back?

Futures likely as they need cap space next year

 

[PHX FireBirds18]

Hopefully your GM goes all in on Chych. I know it will sting but the guys a difference maker and imo just starting to climb towards his true ceiling. Injury concerns are real but the guys a beast and would be amazing in your lineup.

A years supply of free Bojangles

Consideration for the Flames future

 

[MadeUpName]

I guess Eller to Colorado fills their Center slot. Only Minnesota and Carolina still in on Hayes?

With all this movement there may be 2-3 teams who decide to sell in the next couple days and they will have Carolina alone as buyers.

Yep. I mean Gio was by far my #1 target at the deadline last year and I thought we had a good chance to get something done, but that was a hell of a weird reaction by him to just walk after that season.

 

[Justicebork]

I mean, if Calgary wants to hand us their nearly PPG 2C for a bushel of kisses, I'm all for it.

FTFY

 

[MinJaBen]

leBrun saying we have interest in adding Domi again…. One assumes that would be a 259pm kind of thing if absolutely everything else falls through and we have roster spots and haven’t spent all the LTIR money by that point…… that should be last ditch thing not a, b, c, d, or x or y option…

So well in advance of the deadline compared to last year?

A years supply of free Bojangles

Whoa, hold on now....a years supply of what from Bojangles? And for how many? They only have so much of the tenders to go around; we aren't that desperate to send too many of those north.

Probably have some leftover Boberries from failed PPs.

For a Stanley Cup yes you are

Fair deal for both player and team. I've said all along there was little to no chance he was leaving Detroit.

Good template for Dundon with Aho

It was always a pipe dream

but it was a good pipe dream

Honestly gives me hope for Aho's extension.

This kind of pipe?

Y'all don't want me to start the game day thread, do you? That usually doesn't go well.


Let's go boys, someone step up.

and Minnesota's in the mix for Boesser as well, so one of the two ain't happening.
